"I know." Takehiko Ito smiled slightly and said nonchalantly: "So what if you're married? Now that you're married, doesn't Nanako still like you? So, it doesn't matter whether it's me or Nanako,
We don’t care about your past or present, what we care about is your future!”
As he spoke, Takehiko Ito said very seriously: "Mr. Ye, after what happened today, I have a very clear understanding of life. When people live, everything has meaning, the meaning of being rich, the meaning of being poor, but the meaning of being poor is also the meaning of poverty.
When you die, whether you are rich or poor, everything will come to nothing."
"Before today, I would never have let my daughter marry a foreign man, but at this moment, these are no longer important to me. What matters is how to make my daughter happy;
What matters is how to give my daughter the best life!"
"Mr. Ye has the ability and strength, and also has the charm that a strong man should have. Nanako has the cultivation and background, both externally and internally. And she likes you so much. I believe you must have some feelings for Nanako in your heart, otherwise
If so, you would never come all the way to Japan, then make a special trip to Kyoto to see her, save her life, heal her injuries, and even drive hundreds of kilometers in the middle of the night to send her to Tokyo to see me."
Ye Chen nodded and said: "Mr. Ito, it is undeniable that Nanako is indeed a very good girl, but I still say that I am already married."
Takehiko Ito waved his hand and said: "Don't always use the fact that you are married to prevaricate me. You can divorce even if you are married. Even if you don't divorce, you can still marry Nanako in Japan. As long as you don't go back again, there will be no problem."
Ye Chen shook his head and smiled: "Mr. Ito, I do appreciate some of Miss Nanako's valuable qualities, but what you said is still impossible."
After a pause, Ye Chen added: "And I will not stay in Japan. Today, tomorrow at the latest, I will return to China."
Takehiko Ito smiled and said seriously: "Mr. Ye, there is an old saying in China that good birds choose trees to roost in. I have investigated your background, and please forgive me to tell the truth, your current wife is not worthy of you!
"
Ye Chen looked at Takehiko Ito noncommittally and asked with a smile: "Mr. Ito seems to be very knowledgeable about Chinese culture. Just now he could say the words 'dig holes deeply and store grain widely', and now he has 'good birds'
"Choose a tree to live on," he seems to be a master of China!"
Takehiko Ito said seriously: "When I was young, I admired Togo Heihachiro, who led the Japanese fleet to defeat the Russian navy in the Battle of Tsushima. It is said that Togo Heihachiro carried a belt with him, which was engraved with seven characters: bow down and bow down for life.
Yangming, it was then that I learned that Togo Heihachiro had been deeply influenced by the Chinese sage Wang Yangming throughout his life, so I began to follow in his footsteps, read Chinese history books, and learned a lot of Chinese culture and classical literature."
Ye Chen nodded and said with a smile: "It's admirable that Mr. Ito is so studious, but I still want to make it clear to you: I will not divorce my wife! So, please don't say that to Mr. Ito just now."
Let’s not mention it again.”
With that said, Ye Chen added: "Besides, I am leaving Japan soon, so please don't mention this matter to Nanako, so as not to have a bad negative impact on her."
